" Now or Later is as potent as David Mamet's Oleanna in its exposure of how liberal creeds can - one way or another - be murkily tied in with intolerance" -- Independent on "Now or Later" "The play keeps delivering small shocks and aches that end in a standoff, or maybe in that pause between despair, resignation, and a twinge of hope. Haunting." -- New York Times on "Four" "Surprising nuance and sudden surges of emotion. The play offers several outstanding monologues, some tender, some searing, and one unforgettable" -- New Yorker on "On the Mountain" "Better than any play I've seen at finding the natural existential anxiety in the frustration and powerlessness of being a movie actor. Offers ample evidence of this dramatist's singular gift for presenting human murkiness with precisely shaded clarity. Impeccably observed." -- New York Times on "Picked" "Shinn opens a window into lives that we rarely see on stage" -- Broadway World "A playwright who writes with unshowy depth and unforced menace on a challenging subject" -- New York Magazine "Shinn territory is a land of bruised souls sharing awkward silences, their subtext and inchoate impulses placed carefully between them. A dramatist who writes from an intensely interior zone " -- Time Out New York.
